What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[governor22]

ordered new relay set (thx umaii!), w8 console/dome light sunroof model, VWW sticker and some American Crew forming cream (I ran out the other day...) ... also took mud guards off

Previous owner painted calipers canary yellow, so I changed them to deep pearl blue on the weekend - Not screaming for attention anymore

[Driven Threads]

Looks great Jeeren. Would be a challenge to do in that location though?

I remember when Tom (previous owner) painted them yellow.

Good effort jeeren, I'm wanting to get around to do the same thing.. Any tips, hints? Do you need a specific paint to deal with the heat? How did you get the exact deep pearl blue colour? Thanks in advance

[Jeeren]

Thanks guys,
Yeah it was rather challenging for a sunday.

Roache I used the G2 brake caliper paint system LB5R 6X Deep Blue Pearl Audi Volkswagen Custom Color Match Brake Caliper Paint
You detach the calipers and apply it with a brush. At first I wasn't convinced using a brush, but a guy from work had done it 6 months ago on a TT and they still were super glossy.

My advice for blocking the car up is don't use the 'widow-maker' jack lol that thing is bad

Put rear on blocks/jack stands first and front last, then take them off in that reverse order.
I found it easier to use two jacks and slowly raise the height equally so the car doesn't lean or tip over OUCH

Cheers jereen, sounds like that is my next project. Cheers for the link also. Must get onto that soon. Thanks mate.

[VWfresh]

Put these on.

Thanks,
Jeeren
